TOLEDO, Ohio , Sept. 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — Jim McNerney and John Sidell, seasoned supply chain industry professionals and founders of ESYNC, today announced New Course LLC, a consulting and integration services company focused on support of the SAP® Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM) application. ESYNC, which was sold in 2007, was the industry leader in consulting services related to supply chain strategy and supply chain execution system implementations. New Course is the latest venture for McNerney and Sidell, leveraging the team’s experience with over 400 supply chain engagements, including hundreds of warehouse management solutions (WMS), Transportation Management Systems (TMS) and Labor Management Systems (LMS) projects, to help clients successfully implement and improve productivity with SAP EWM.

“The market strategy of ESYNC was to partner with multiple “best of breed” software vendors and work collaboratively with clients to plan and deploy supply chain system projects,” said John Sidell, New Course Principal and co-founder. “The New Course market strategy is similar in terms of consulting and implementation services, but our emphasis will be working closely and collaboratively with SAP and in turn, their existing client base.”

As an SAP services partner in the SAP PartnerEdge ® program, New Course will work closely with customers to develop business cases based on SAP EWM, design future state process flows and operational best practices, build integrated project and resource plans, and lead system implementations by providing overall program management, configuration, testing, training and deployment services.

“SAP has added significant functionality to SAP EWM, making it feature for feature comparable with the best-of-breed WMS vendors,” said Jim McNerney, New Course Principal and co-founder. “Our emphasis in working with SAP is to bring our operational proficiency and supply chain execution best practice expertise to the community of users of SAP EWM.”
